#JACKETNATION

Happy Saturday!!

(It is also very happy because we didn’t have practice at 8:30 a.m. & I could finally sleep in !! Thanks Coaches :-) )
Yesterday was our annual Intersquad scrimmage! It was also my last one, such a weird thought. It was a lot of fun and always a great time playing against each other in a real game setting. All of our parents were invited to watch and have a little reception afterwards. It is always fun to play the “guessing game” of whose parents belong to what freshman. The scrimmage was filled with a lot of great things that we have spent the past two weeks putting in at practice, but it was also filled with things we need to improve on. The brown squad officially has bragging rights until Monday at 5 p.m. when we return to practice. Coach K had his first victory in the intersquad scrimmage, he now improves his record to 1-2 and Coach Campbell recorded her first loss and has a record of 1-1. After the scrimmage was over we headed to Tressel Lounge and indulged ourselves with pizza and snacks. Every player introduced their family that was there with them and we welcomed everyone in to the yellow jacket family for the 2011-2012 season. Practice has been going very well and we are improving every day. Our next opponent is our scrimmage against Tiffin University on Wednesday. We are going to see a lot of screens and cuts, so we will have our pistols ready and be in defensive stance. Other than basketball, all of the girls have been hanging out with each other and we have a great group this year. Tonight we are celebrating Halloween. It will be interesting to see what everyone is going to dress up as. So far I have about 7 hours to come up with a costume. Stay tuned for the next blog , I’m sure someone will upload some pictures of our team.

Awwww Jackets ;)
